The gloves have come off for the establishment media; it will say or do anything whatsoever to get Obama reelected, credibility be damned. Academia isn’t quite there yet:

A college professor has been placed on leave after she allegedly forced her class to sign a pledge to vote for President Obama in the upcoming elections.

Early last week Professor Sharon Sweet at Brevard Community College (BCC) allegedly told students to sign a pledge that reads: “I pledge to vote for President Obama and Democrats up and down the ticket.”

The pledge was printed off of GottaVote.org, a website funded by the Obama campaign.

This violated not only the most fundamental standards of educational ethics, but also Florida election law:

Section 104.31, of Title IX in chapter 104, states that “no officer or employee of the state… shall… use his or her official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with an election or nomination of officer or influencing another person’s vote or affecting the result thereof.”

Judging by her reviews, Prof. Sweet is much better at trying to impose moonbattery than she is at teaching math. She ought to switch to journalism. Her petition wouldn’t cause her any trouble in the average “mainstream” newsroom.

This happened in Florida and she got reprimanded. Imagine if this had happened in New York of California.

Yeah, in NY the students would have been expelled as toublemakers

They are in full attack mode now. Here is where we must get on their shit 10 times more than they get on ours.

I don’t care at this point what happens with the damn election (Romney keeps stepping on his dick…what politician doesn’t understand that EVERY WORD HE SAYS is being recorded), but these evil progs have got to get a taste of their own medicine.

Deride them. Hammer them. Get in their faces. Shout them down. Be confrontational. Do not be polite.

As for Ms. Sweet, check out the college website. It’s been scrubbed of any mention of her save for one small mention on a faculty page (as of last night anyhow). But don’t worry…she is doing her Master’s bidding and will be rewarded when the great day of judgement (i.e. November 6) arrives…providing things go His way.

By the way, I totally agree with everything Romney said…I just wish he’d done it publicly, in a speech in front of TV cameras.

What’s to hide? He told the truth, and if it hurts…OH WELL!

Judging by her reviews, Prof. Sweet is much better at trying to impose moonbattery than she is at teaching math.

I loath liberals. There is no end to their lies, cheating, sedition, hatefulness, and racism.

I must be slipping. Though admittedly I don’t often check what everyone else is posting, but I thought even if I wasn’t the first to post about this teacher, I was the first to post the link to her evaluations.

Perhaps not. I still haven’t checked. Doesn’t matter – the important thing is it got noticed so thanks to ALL who brought it up. I don’t think any of us do much checking to see what others are posting, from the looks of things, before we post ourselves. Fine with me.

And, by the way, the teacher in question is apparently a woman. A black woman. Probably hates white men. Yet we’re the racist, sexist bigots, not her.
